After the family split up, I achieved martial arts sainthood.

asshole!

Lei Tong cursed under his breath, feeling a mixture of shame and anger, and his anger only intensified.

He was threatened by his apprentice and then bullied by his master.

When did the Green Forest Gang become so powerless?

Lei Tong gritted his teeth, trying to tough it out, his hand gripping the hilt of his sword, even contemplating drawing it to fight back.

However, despite his desperate attempts to resist, he found it difficult to move and could barely budge an inch for a long time.

Yang Wei's aura, like an iron clamp, relentlessly suppressed him.

The gap in strength between them is far too great.

His efforts to resist were futile.

"Release them!"

Seeing that Lei Tong remained silent and attempted to resist, Yang Wei took a step forward and continued to press towards Lei Tong.

"boom!"

The closer the distance, the stronger the atmosphere, and the heavier the sense of oppression.

"Thump!"

Lei Tong could no longer hold on; his legs suddenly gave way, and he knelt down.

With a thud, the bluestone floor beneath Lei Tong's knees suddenly cracked, and the cracks spread out for half a meter.

Lei Tong's originally flushed cheeks quickly turned pale.

Blood seeped uncontrollably from the corners of his tightly pursed lips.

He tried to forcefully resist Yang Wei's oppression, but his internal energy and blood were backfired and kept fluctuating.

It was clear that he had suffered internal injuries.

"Since Hall Master Lei wishes to die, then I, Yang, will send you on your way!"

Seeing that Lei Tong still dared to resist, Yang Wei stretched out his right hand.

Clench your fist and gather your strength to move.

This indicates a plan to strike decisively and kill directly.

"Release them! Release them!"

Upon seeing this, Lei Tong's pupils constricted, and he dared not resist any longer, so he hurriedly shouted.

Despite his grief and indignation at this situation, he was ultimately unwilling to give up his life when death was imminent.

A true man can bend and stretch; if he is humiliated today, he will avenge himself another day.

Upon hearing Lei Tong finally speak, the Qinglin Gang members, who were already terrified, hurriedly got up and lowered the martial arts students who had been hanging high on the shelf.

As the apprentices landed, Yang Wei's aura quietly dissipated.

The somber atmosphere in front of the hall was swept away, and the initial tranquility was restored.

"Can we leave?"

Yang Wei looked at the apprentices with a cold expression and asked them questions.

"Master, I can walk! I can walk!"

Although the apprentices were hung up for a long time, fortunately they were not seriously injured and could still walk.

"Then go back to the martial arts gym and practice properly!"

Yang Wei greeted him coldly, his face full of disdain.

The apprentices all blushed, utterly ashamed.

Not daring to argue, he lowered his head and hurriedly ran away.

Yang Wei, with his hands behind his back, turned to look at Lei Tong, who was being helped to his feet by his gang members, and coldly warned, "Hall Master Lei, next time you want to touch my disciple, remember to give me advance notice. Otherwise, don't blame me for showing up uninvited."

After saying this, Yang Wei snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, turned around, and left indifferently.

His unhurried pace revealed a calm state of mind.

Lei Tong watched Yang Wei's retreating figure, gritting his teeth, his rugged face contorted with rage.

He has lost face big time today.

The prestige of the Green Forest Gang will also plummet.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Brother Lei? How's it going?"

The managers scrambled to their feet, looking nervously at Lei Tong.

Lei Tong's face was cold as he pushed away the steward who was helping him up.

"A bunch of useless trash! The Green Forest Gang has completely lost face today."

Lei Tong was burning with rage, feeling as if his chest was about to explode.

The managers all lowered their heads, their faces flushed, and dared not utter a sound.

Lei Tong wanted to reprimand them, but he also knew that they couldn't control the situation.

Having mustered his courage, Lei Tong suppressed his anger, raised his eyes to look at the crowd watching from the street in the distance, his eyes filled with a cold glint.

After a moment's thought, he ordered, "Pass down the word: this month's incense money will be increased by another 10%. Collect it from every household, and don't let a single one be shortchanged."

Want to see the Green Forest Gang make a fool of themselves?

A bunch of bastards, do they even deserve to be called that?

Upon hearing this, the managers all understood that Master Lei intended to vent his anger on the farmers in order to restore the prestige of the Green Forest Gang.

"Yes, Master!"

All the managers readily accepted the order without the slightest hesitation.

"Prepare the horses!"

"Where is Master Lei going?"

"Back to main hall!"

Lei Tong gripped his sword tightly, gritted his teeth, and snorted softly, "The Green Forest Gang will not tolerate this grudge today."

The stewards all sensed the suppressed anger in Lei Tong's voice and dared not delay. They immediately arranged for horses to be prepared and for the crowd to be dispersed.

……

Yang Wei didn't seem to care much about Lei Tong's subsequent reaction, nor did he seem to care much about the Qinglin Gang's retaliation.

With hands behind her back, she walked slowly down the deserted street.

His expression was calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

After walking along, Yang Wei came to the entrance of an alley and stopped.

"Come out!"

Yang Wei spoke calmly and without any emotion.

Deep in the alley, a figure leaped down from the courtyard wall and walked out along the corner of the wall.

"Master!"

He was tall and imposing, with a handsome and refined appearance and strong features.

It was Gu Xin.

Yang Wei turned his head, looked him up and down, and then smiled with pleasure: "Well done, you have the demeanor of a teacher."

"I'm sorry to have troubled my master."

Gu Xin gave an awkward smile, not daring to be arrogant.

In the end, I never expected that I would still have to trouble my master to step in.

"Even if I don't come, Lei Tong will still release them."

As Yang Wei walked forward, he smiled calmly and said, "You've won over people's hearts. Once those hearts are scattered, Leitong's momentum will be gone, and he'll have no chance of gaining any real power."

Gu Xin terrified the managers, forcing them to become alienated from Lei Tong.

Under such circumstances, even if Lei Tong wanted to go his own way, he would have to consider the possibility of being abandoned by his followers.

Given Lei Tong's intelligence, he is unlikely to remain stubborn to the end.

All my previous obsession was just a way to save face.

"My arrival just happened to give Lei Tong a convenient opportunity."

Yang Wei saw it clearly and had long since seen through Lei Tong's mentality.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have displayed such domineering attitude from the very beginning.

"Master knew all along that I was targeting the Green Forest Gang, didn't he?"

The master and apprentice walked side by side, and Gu Xin asked the question that had been bothering him.

"I didn't know before; I only found out when Lei Tong came."

Yang Wei didn't try to hide anything and laughed frankly, "However, at that time we weren't sure either, we just had some doubts."

I see……

Gu Xin pondered for a moment and guessed that when he saw Lei Tong arrive, his emotions fluctuated too much and he was unable to hide it from his master's perception.

The insight of a Qi Creation Realm expert should not be underestimated.

Looking back now, Gu Xin finally understood why his master had stood in front of him back then.

This is to prevent those who are similar from noticing something, and to deliberately obscure their view.

He finally understood why his master had suddenly given him a lesson and given him the Water of Transformation and the Incense of Invisibility.

"Thank you, Master!"

Having understood everything, Gu Xin turned to face Yang Wei, solemnly clasped his hands in thanks, and bowed deeply.

He knew he had met a good mentor.

A master who is willing to protect his disciples without asking why.

From this day forward, I can say that I have a powerful backer.

Yang Wei glanced at Gu Xin, smiled casually, said nothing, and continued walking with his hands behind his back.

Gu Xin stopped being coy and got up to firmly follow his master's steps as they left.
